Resources
- Fire Kit/Water
- Buttermilk biscuit dough (refrigerated/cool)
- Vegetable oil
- 3/4 cup sugar

Plain Glaze (optional):
- 2 cups confectioners sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 1/4 cup milk

Explanation
On a cutting board, separate the buttermilk biscuit dough and use the vegetable oil cap to cut a hole in the biscuit. Heat about 2 inches of oil in a pan and add 2-3 biscuits. Fry the biscuits in the oil, flipping them over with tongs when they are golden-brown. Once the doughnuts are cooked, put them on a paper towel or plate. Put the sugar and cinnamon in a paper bag and add the doughnuts. Shake well and enjoy.
If you want to make the glaze, put the confectioners’ sugar and salt in a bowl. Add melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract and whisk until smooth. Then just dip each doughnut in the glaze and enjoy.
